Chapter 811: Eric turned sharply toward Theodore, irritation evident in his eyes. “Didn't I clearly instruct you? Why didn't you properly explain things to Hadley? What if you frightened her?" After all, she was pregnant! "I—I did explain," Theodore stammered, feeling unjustly accused. "Mr. Flynn told her your injury wasn't serious." "As long as you're okay!" Hadley interrupted softly, visibly relieved, suddenly placing a hand on her stomach. "Hadley!" Eric reacted immediately, steadying her anxiously, eyes filled with concern. “What's wrong? Are you feeling unwell?" Hadley hesitated, embarrassed, shaking her head gently, her cheeks tinged with pink. "It's not that... I think I might just be a bit hungry." Eric stared blankly at her for a moment before laughing softly in surprise. "You think? You're unsure if you're hungry?" He teased affectionately, gently pinching the tip of her nose.

He couldn't let Hadley feel that way.

"Fine," he finally said, his voice softening with indulgence. "We'll get you one." "Deal!" Hadley replied eagerly, smiling up at him brightly.

As they moved to leave hand-in-hand, they almost collided with Linda, who stood frozen in place, quietly observing them.

Eric paused in surprise. "Linda? Surprised to see you here!" "Yes," Linda replied quietly, forcing a smile onto her face.

Had he only just noticed her now? Was Hadley really the only one iĥ'his eyes?

Hadley abruptly released Eric's hand, causing him to frown with concern, thinking she might be upset again. "Hadley?"

"You two talk," Hadley said gently, smiling warmly as she pointed m toward Theodofe. "I'll take Theodore withto buy the hotdog."
